Clean Our Air

Clean Our Air
Replace at least one trip a month with walking, bicycling or using TARC.

Decrease carbon dioxide emission by 1,000 pounds.


More actions you can take:

  • Inflate car tires to the manufacturer’s recommended levels.
  • Walk or ride a bicycle for short trips in your neighborhood.
  • Do not warm up your car--idling releases emissions. Automatic transmissions do not need to be warmed.
  • Use an electric or push lawn mower.
  • Purchase low odor paints. These reduce the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or fumes in your home.
  • Refuel when it’s cool. Refuel during the evenings or early in the morning when the air is cool.
  • Join the KAIRE clean-air Network.
  • Stop at the “click.” Topping off your tank releases gas fumes into the air and cancels the benefits of the pump’s anti-pollution devices.
  • Use a gas or electric grill instead of charcoal. Lighter fluid is harmful to the air. Maintain your propane tanks according to specifications.
